Faraway But Near

Can You Not?

Jen is just sitting around doing basically nothing. She felt bored and ate a lot, maybe just a girl thing when girls get bored, right? Or even for guys? Yeah- and this happened.

"Jaaaaannaaaaah!" her mom called like Tarzan.

"Yes! I am coming, my dearest mooom!" as she rolled from her bed and tried to motivate herself to just stand up.

She ran downstairs quickly and landed on the living room where her mom is standing beside a man, an average height and good-looking man, OH, her ex-boyfriend.

"OHHH- what a pleasant surprise, you know what ma, I wanna go upstairs and just-" Jen rushing going upstairs but her words were cut by her mom.

"Jannah, he needs your help, he wants to talk with you for awhile, please dear", her mom pleaded.

"Alright then, fine ma-", as she marched towards opening the front door to their front yard.

She shut the main door tightly and continued to march like a soldier to her front yard where all her flowers planted by her mom are aligned beautifully.

"So- what do you wanna talk about, fag?" as she crossed her arms while looking at him as if he is a student who forgot to bring his homework.

She looked up and down from his eyes until his shoes because he is not even responding one word, even a single letter.

"SO? Don't just stand there and act dumb", being angry while projecting her voice with full of sharpness and the exact volume.

"I am not gonna talk with you until you speak to me, politely and properly."

"You ain't my boss, so what's the point, you are wasting my time", and tried to walk away from him.

He pulled her arm into him.

"Really? Thats how you solve it? By leaving me hanging? Don't you know I still have feelings for you, Jenny? Come on!" as he made the cheap sad face of a playboy.

"You are not my priority, you are just a human who wants to ruin my happiness, go away, stupid!", she shook her arm so he won't get a hold of it.

"Jenny, baby... Please its just a misunderstanding..." as he slowly lower his tone and making it soft.

Jen just rolled her eyes.

"I am not your baby, you are not my mother who gave birth to me!" she shouted.

He gently say, "Jenny. I know you are mad about what I did... but come on, she was only a freshman and she needed help towards her homework-" and was cut by Jenny.

"OHHHH HOMEWORK? Dude? You kiddin me? Homework in a quiet place with not even books around? Gosh, LIAR!" as she slapped him.

"I am done with your lies", as she ran towards inside her house and passed by her mom standing outside the main door.

Her mom come up to him and told him to go home. He told the mom to take care of herself and to live happily and left with his Ferrari car.
